This book takes all of the trappings of menopause and the fear that surrounds it and turns it on its head. I recommend for all readers, but particularly for women. Men, be prepared to feel offended while reading. You can handle it.

This book deals with a lot of difficult and very real themes, but does so in a thoughtful way. The author also calls out true crime victim exploitation in a way that makes you want to send it to every podcaster making their money off of glorifying serial killers.
